Kia Ora, I’m Ben, a physiotherapist with a strong passion for helping people recover from injuries and reach their full physical potential—both in everyday life and with athletic endeavours.
I graduated from AUT with a Bachelors of Physiotherapy in 2022. Since then I have also become a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) through the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA) and am certified to perform dry needling. My approach combines evidence-based rehab techniques with performance-focused training to help clients not only heal but also come back stronger.
Throughout my career I have had the privilege of working with various populations such as older-persons, post-surgical, chronic pain, and working in premier-level rugby, where I gained hands-on experience in treating high-performance athletes and managing acute and chronic sports injuries.
My key interests lie in strength and conditioning, sports injuries, post-surgical rehabilitation, and tendinopathy management. Whether you’re an athlete working toward peak performance or someone recovering from an injury, I’m here to guide you through a personalized, structured approach to recovery and improvement. I’m especially passionate about bridging the gap between rehab and performance—making sure you don't just return to your sport, but return better prepared.
Let’s work together to get you moving better, feeling stronger, and performing at your best. View details »
Hi, I’m Lauren, an Irish Physiotherapist with a background in Sports Science and Strength & Conditioning. I completed both the Professional Masters in Physiotherapy and the BSc in Health & Performance Science at University College Dublin.
Since graduating, I have worked in private practice in Dublin, helping a wide range of clients including athletes to those looking to stay active and pain-free. I enjoy combining exercise-based rehab and education to support people in moving better, feeling stronger and reaching their goals. I have also been fortunate to work with the Football Association of Ireland, where I led the design and delivery of athletic development programmes.
I recently moved to New Zealand for a new adventure, to enjoy the outdoors and to continue growing professionally. Outside of work, I enjoy exploring new places and participating in endurance events. View details »
I graduated from University College Dublin in Ireland in 2019 and moved to New Zealand shortly afterwards.
As a physio, I have worked with soccer, rugby and gaelic football teams across a variety of age groups and levels in mens + womens sport in Ireland and New Zealand. I am currently studying for a Certified Specialist in Strength and Conditioning qualification to continue to develop my skills.
I am passionate about helping people get back to doing the things they love and really enjoy working with people to achieve their goals. I have a particular interest in injuries that require long term rehab and love using my exercise skills to make sure people are getting back to and beyond their pre-injury levels. That interest leads me to see a lot of significant injuries and post-surgical cases with ACL injuries, shoulder dislocations and achilles ruptures currently top of my list.
Outside of work I love all types of sport. I'm currently playing soccer and gaelic football along with gym training, but I have qualifications as a kayaking, sailing and paddle boarding instructor and I'm currently trying to master surfing. When I'm not playing sports, I love exploring New Zealand's beautiful landscape by hiking, camping and tramping. View details »
